  1. *Differences in fraction of motile cells between control and dynhp cells for each genetic background were significant (chi-square; p < 0.001).
  2. †Differences in roundness between control and dynhp cells for each genetic background were significant (Student t test; p < 0.001).
  3. All values are mean ± SEM.
